Paleos find âDire Revengeâ no longer passes Laugh Test; Resort to Whining
The Palestinian National Authority (PNA) on Wednesday accused Israel of deluding the world by saying that a new stage of peace with the Palestinians is coming while continuing its military offensives all over the Palestinian territories. PNA minister of labor Ghassan Al Khatib told Voice of Palestine radio that the PNA condemns the Israeli assassinations carried out recently in the West Bank, the last of which took place earlier Wednesday. The Israeli army assassinated two Palestinian militants in the West Bank town of Nablus on Monday and shot dead a Palestinian in Balata refugee camp on Tuesday. On Wednesday, Israeli soldiers killed two Palestinians in Jenin and Nablus. "The Palestinian leadership is trying to earn the international communityâs support to compel Israel to stop the military actions against the Palestinians," Khatib said. "This effort is made together with Arab countries." Khatib said that the Palestinians, the Arabs and the international community "must not get cheated by the Israeli propaganda that gives an impression that a new peace era is coming while Israel insists to continue with its current position of using excessive force against the Palestinians. The statements of Israeli defense minister Shaul Mofaz that Israel is planning to expand settlements and move settlers from Gaza to those settlements is a clear evidence that unveiled the mask on Israelâs face."
